10
Q

WHAT SURGICAL PROCEDURE IS:

performed to help the physician in determining the cause of the symptom experience of a particular patient (i.e. biopsy)

A

Diagnostic

11
Q

WHAT SURGICAL PROCEDURE IS:

performed to estimate the extent of disease and confirm the diagnosis of a particular patient

A

Exploratory

12
Q

WHAT SURGICAL PROCEDURE IS:

performed to remove diseased program.

12
# WHAT SURGICAL PROCEDURE IS: performed to remove diseased, damage, or congenitally malformed body organ/ part.
Curative
12
# WHAT SURGICAL PROCEDURE IS: performed not to cure a patient from a disease but to alleviate signs and symptoms
Palliative
12
# WHAT SURGICAL PROCEDURE IS: refers to partial or complete restoration of a damaged organ or body part.
Restorative (reconstructive)
12
Refer to any procedure that involves entry into the human body usually performed through the use of instruments.
SURGERY
12
# WHAT SURGICAL PROCEDURE IS: used to remove tissue that does not contain cancerous cells, but may develop into a malignant tumor.
Preventive
12
# WHAT SURGICAL PROCEDURE IS: performed for aesthetic purposes
Cosmetic improvement
12
# WHAT SURGICAL PROCEDURE IS: performed to remove diseased program.
Ablative
12
MAJOR CATEGORIES OF SURGICAL PROCEDURES ACCORDING TO URGENCY
1. Emergency (unplanned surgery) 2. Imperative/ urgent 3. Planned Required Surgery 4. Elective
12
# WHAT SURGICAL PROCEDURE ACCORDING TO URGENCY IS: performed immediately, stat surgery
Emergency (unplanned surgery)
12
# WHAT SURGICAL PROCEDURE ACCORDING TO URGENCY IS: must be performed within 24-48 hours
Imperative/ urgent
12
# WHAT SURGICAL PROCEDURE ACCORDING TO URGENCY IS: necessary for the patient’s wellbeing but not urgent
Planned Required Surgery
12
# WHAT SURGICAL PROCEDURE ACCORDING TO URGENCY IS: performed for patients’ wellbeing
Elective
12
MAJOR CATEGORIES OF SURGICAL PROCEDURES ACCORDING TO EXTENT
* Minor Surgery * Major Surgery
12
# WHAT MAJOR CATEGORIES OF SURGICAL PROCEDURES ACCORDING TO EXTENT IS:  Present little risk to life  Generally not prolonged  No-vital organs involved  Leads to few serious complication  Uses local anesthesia
Minor Surgery | (cIRCUMCISSION, DILATATION AND CURRETAGE)
12
# WHAT MAJOR CATEGORIES OF SURGICAL PROCEDURES ACCORDING TO EXTENT IS:  Involves high risk for patients  Prolonged period of time in OR table  Large amount of blood may be lost  Higher risk of post- operative complications
Major Surgery | (APPENDECTOMY, EXPLORATORY LAPAROTOMY, CESARIAN)
12
FACTORS AFFECTING THE DEGREE OF SURGICAL RISK OF PATIENTS
* Physical and mental condition * Extent of disease * Extent of surgical procedure * Caliber of the professional staff
12
# Under Extent of disease: related to the severity of the disease
Nature of the disease
12
# Under Extent of disease: refers to the organ or body parts that is involved
Location
12
# Under Extent of disease: the longer the duration of the disease, the lower the resistance of the patient, the higher the risk of surgery.
Duration of the disease
12
WHAT ARE MAJOR EFFECTS OF SURGERY
* Stress response * Disruption of vascular system * Lowered defense against infection * Disruption of organ function * Body image disturbance * Lifestyle change
13
Surgery came from the Greek word “________” which means working by hand.
"kheirurgos" | Father of surgery: Hippocrates
14
COMMON SUFFIXES DESCRIBING SURGICAL PROCEDURES: removal of an organ/ gland
